“Marie” on Housework.

HOW TO MAKE IT EASY. “Women who find housework a worry” (writes “Marie” in one of her “Home” articles) should not treat it as a necessary evil, but should

fit themselves to do it to perfection. Then it is easy instead of irksome.” A practical woman, whose life, lias much in it to encourage wives and mothers, talks interestingly on the same subject. "Housework used to be a terrible trial. 1 was often very ill and nervous,” said this lady, Mrs Mary Maher, of Kaiwarra, Wellington, “and but for Dr. Williams’ pink pills I could do no housework to-day. Years ago serious internal troubles made me almost an invalid, and a hospital operation did not mend matters. My

nervous system wa.A lefd completely shattered. Often I was all in a tremble. At the least sudden sound my heart seemed to jump into my mouth and then stop still. At other times it often throbbed po violently that I was afraid I would drop dead. I lost, weight, and grew very pale. I was always weak and weary—a victim to headaches, and unable to sleep properly at night. Then I read in the ‘Wellington Post’ of Dr. Williams’ pink pills, and Mr Maher made me begin taking them. Now I know positively, from my own personal experience, that they are just the finest blood builder and nerve tonic iu the world. They actually make new blood. Two boxes did me a world of good. Several more boxes completely braced up my shattered nerves, made plenty of rich, red blood for me, and gave, me a healthy, hearty appetite again. Now I sleep soundly at night, and I have gained in weight. My complexion has improved greatly, and 1 am a different woman altogether.” These pills are really the grandest medicine iu the world for the cure of anaemia, indigestion, debility, liver and kidney troubles, and all the headaches, pains and backaches that afflict women, regularly or otherwise. They don’t merely lessen the symptoms of disease—they actually root out the cause of the trouble. Being a blood-builder and nervetonic, they cure all blood and nerve disorders such as hysteria, nervousness, neuralgia, rheumatism, sciatica, spinal weakness, paralysis, locomotor ataxia, failing powers, decline, and even consumption when taken in time. Their worth has been proved a hundred times by New Zealanders in Auckland, Nelson, Dunedin, and Invercargill, “No housewife,” said Mrs Maher, in conclusion, “takes greater pleasure than I do now in working about the home and keeping things straight.” ~ -
